Question
The postpartum mother asks the nurse if she should have their son circumcised. Which piece of scientific information should the nurse base her answer on?*1 pointA.Boys should be circumcised because it is in the Philippine cultureB.A statement from the DOH asserts that circumcision is highly personalC.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) experts endorse circumcision for every male newborns.D.Circumcision is not yet allowed in newborns and should not be talked about.
Solution
The nurse should base her answer on the statement from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC has conducted extensive research and found that there are health benefits to circumcision, including a decreased risk of urinary tract infections, a reduced risk of some sexually transmitted diseases in men, and a reduced risk of penile cancer. However, the CDC also acknowledges that the decision to circumcise is a personal one that may involve religious, ethical, cultural, and personal considerations. Therefore, while the CDC endorses circumcision, they do not mandate it for all male newborns.
